Nicole Richie was arrested for DUI early Monday morning.
She was booked at 4:50 AM today and was released
around 7:15 this morning. The booking sheet reveals
Richie is 5'1" and 85 lbs.
We're told two motorists spotted her SUV going the wrong
way on the 134 Freeway in Burbank. The drivers called 911.
When the CHP responded, Richie was stopped in the
carpool lane and was alone in the vehicle. When cops approached
the vehicle, Richie was on her cellphone.
Law enforcement officers tell TMZ Nicole Richie admitted s
he had taken Vicodin and smoked pot.
A preliminary alcohol screening device revealed that Nicole
was not under the influence of alcohol.
One law enforcement source tell TMZ that while Richie was
at the jail she was "very cooperative and very humble."
This is not the first brush Richie has had with substance abuse.
In 2003, she pled guilty to heroin possession. The charges
were dismissed after she completed the terms of her
probation.
A rep for Richie had no comment.
